wireless LAN and Fast Ethernet switch. It provides a complete solution for Internet

surfing and office resources sharing, and it is easy to configure and operate for

every users.

Purpose

This manual discusses how to install the 108Mbps Super-G

Wireless LAN

Router.

INTRODUCTION

With the explosive growth of the Internet, accessing information and services at

any time, day or night has become a standard requirement for most people. The era

of the standalone PC is waning. Networking technology is moving out of the

exclusive domain of corporations and into homes with at least two computers.

This integrated access device combines Internet gateway functions with wireless

LAN and Fast Ethernet switch. Designed for the business and home, it saves you

the cost of installing a separate modem and ISP line for each computer, while

providing ready connection for the users, with or without the network wires.

Broadband network access is also gaining ground. However, allowing more than

two computers to access the Internet at the same time means less affordable, higher

costs. Thus, there is a need to share one legal IP address over a single Internet

connection to link the home with the Internet.

The scarcity of IP addresses and using a shared Internet connection through an

Internet sharing device can solve high network access costs. All linked computers

can make full use of broadband capabilities over such a device.

This device not only comes equipped with a wide range of features, but also can be

installed and configured right out of the box. This device supports a simple local

area network and Internet access share, offering great cost savings.

The local area network connects up home computers while also allowing any of the

computers to access the Internet, share resources, or play online games—the basis

of the family computing lifestyle.

Applications:

Broadband Internet access:

Several computers can share one high-speed broadband connection through

wireless or wired (WLAN, LAN and WAN-Internet).

Resource sharing:

Share resources such as printers, scanners and other peripherals.

File sharing:

Exchange data, messages, and distribute files thus making good use of hard disk

space.

Online gaming:

Through the local area network, online gaming and e-commerce services can be

easily setup.

Firewall:

A built-in firewall function — for security and anti-hack system.

Features:

 High speed data transfer rate

 Supports NAT for share 1 IP address to all LAN/WLAN users.

 Supports PPPoE and PPTP protocol for Dial-Up ADSL.

 Supports 64/128 bit WEP Encryption

 Supports WPA-PSK, WPA2-PSK, WPA, WPA2 security

 Supports DHCP Server / Client.

 Supports UPnP (Universal Plug and Play).

 Supports Virtual Server mapping.

 Supports Packet filtering.

 Supports Protocol filtering

 Support Domain filtering

 Supports DNS

 Simple Firewall protection.

 Upgradeable firmware for future function.

 Simple setting using Setup Wizard.

 Easy configuration via WEB Browser.

UNPACKING AND SETUP

This chapter provides unpacking and setup information for the 108Mbps Super-G

Wireless LAN Router.

Unpacking

Open the box of the WLAN Router and carefully unpack it. The box should contain

the following items:



One 108Mbps Super-G

Wireless LAN Router



One dipole antenna



One external power adapter



One CD-ROM with this User’s Guide

If any item is found missing or damaged, please contact your local reseller for

replacement.

Setup

The setup of the WLAN Router can be performed properly using the following

methods:



The power outlet should be within 1.82 meters (6 feet) of the Broadband Router.



Visually inspect the DC power jack and make sure that it is fully secured to the

power adapter.



Make sure that there is proper heat dissipation from and adequate ventilation

around the Broadband Router. Do not place heavy objects on the Broadband

Router.



Fix the direction of the antennas. Try to place the Wireless Router in a position

that can best cover your wireless network. Normally, the higher you place the

antenna, the better the performance will be. The antenna’s position enhances the

receiving sensitivity.

HARDWARE INSTALLATION

Front Panel

The figure below shows the front panel of the 108Mbps Super-G

Wireless LAN

Router.

Front Panel

Power

This indicator lights green when the hub is receives power, otherwise it is off.

Status

This indicator blinking green means the WLAN Router is working successful.

Otherwise, this indicator always on or off means the function of the WLAN Router

is fail.

WAN (Link/ACT)

The indicators light green when the WAN port was connected to an xDSL/Cable

modem successfully.

The indicators blink green while the WAN port was transmitting or receiving data

on the xDSL/Cable modem.

WLAN (ACT)

This indicator lights green when there are wireless devices connected and

transmitting data to the WLAN Router.

Local Network (Link/ACT)

These indicators light green when the LAN ports were connected successfully.

These indicators blinking green while the LAN ports were accessing data.

Rear Panel

The figure below shows the rear panel of the 108Mbps Super-G

Wireless LAN

Router.

Rear Panel

Antenna

There is one 2dBi Gain Antenna in the rear panel for wireless connection.

LAN (1-4)

Four RJ-45 10/100Mbps Auto-MDIX ports for connecting to either 10Mbps or

100Mbps Ethernet connections.

WAN

In the four port broadband router, there is an RJ-45 10/100Mbps Auto-MDIX port

for the WAN that will fit the xDSL/Cable modem’s specification need.

DC IN

Plug the power adapter to this power jack

RESET

Use a pin-shape item to push to reset this device to factory default settings. It will

be useful too when the manager forgot the password to login, but the setting will be

back to default setting.

Hardware connections

Connecting the WLAN Router

1. Plug in one end of the network cable to the WAN port of the WLAN Router.

2. Plug in the other end of the network cable to the Ethernet port of the xDSL or

Cable modem.

3. Use another network cable to connect to the Ethernet card on the computer

system; the other end of the cable connects to the LAN port of the WLAN

Router. Since the 108Mbps Super-G

Wireless LAN Router has four ports, you

can connect up to four computers directly to the unit. There you do not have to

buy a switch to connect these computers since one WLAN Router functions both

as a connection-sharing unit and as a switch.

Check the installation

The control LEDs of the WLAN Router are clearly visible and the status of the

network link can be seen instantly:

1. With the power source on, once the device is connected to the broadband modem,

the Power, System, LAN, WLAN and WAN port LEDs of the WLAN Router

will light up indicating a normal status.

2. While the WAN is link up to the ADSL/Cable modem, the WAN port’s LED

will light up.

3. While the LAN is link up to the computer system, the LAN port’s LED will light

up.
